Molecular epidemiology of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium in Argentina

22 Jun 2006

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To characterize the mechanism of glycopeptide resistance and to determine the genetic relatedness among strains by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) in vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium from Argentina. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 189 vancomycin-resistant single-patient isolates of Enterococcus faecium recovered between January 1997 and December 2000 from 30 hospitals in Argentina...
